Interactive session preview

Which bend would you prototype?

The duct has to fit inside a compact housing. Compare the two layouts in the same enclosure, then see what the engineer would measure before choosing.

Illustrative diagrams, commentary and audience questions. No live broadcast is running in this preview.

Proposed partnership

The Dyson partnership

Dyson could co-own the platform and earn an agreed share of subscription, masterclass and sponsorship revenue, with contributors delivering the regular sessions.

12 proposed channels

From first sketch to finished product.

Each channel is an ongoing series of live masterclasses from a specialist. Explore the proposed lineup and see what an individual channel could offer.
